General
The fitting of the appliance should only be
carried out by a registered Corgi gas fitter.
Please note:
This appliance is not connected to a flue duct.
Take care to ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation.
Electrical connection
230 V - 50 Hz.
This appliance complies the regulations
concerning electromagnetic compatibility in
directive 89/336/EEC.
■ The electrical connection must comply with
national and local regulations.
■ Wall socket and plug must be accessible at
all times.
■ If you want to make a fixed connection,
ensure that a multi-pole switch with a
distance between contacts of 3 mm is
installed in the supply cable.
Gas connection RC 1/2˝ (ISO 7/1-RC 1/2)
■ The gas connection must comply with
national and local regulations.
Amongst other things these regulations
instruct that:
– only approved materials are to be used;
– only a completely metal hose may be used
behind a built-in oven and beneath the hob.
Please note:
The type of gas and the country for which the
appliance has been designed are indicated on
the data badge.
■ We recommend that the hob be connected by
means of a fixed pipe. Connection using a
specially designed safety hose is also
permitted. In all cases the connection tap for
the appliance must be positioned such that it
is easily accessible, in an adjacent kitchen
cupboard, for example.
Please note:
A metal safety hose must not get kinks in it or get
trapped and must not come into contact with
moving parts of the kitchen furniture.
■ Before using the appliance for the first time
check the connections using water and
washing-up liquid to ensure that there are no
gas leaks.
■ Do not install a hob next to a high cupboard
or wall made of flammable material. (If there
is no alternative, ensure that there is a
minimal distance of 150 mm between the
outer edge of the hob and the wall in
question. Also ensure that there is a minimum
distance of 650 mm between the hob and any
overhead extractor fan which may be
installed.)
Saucepans
The recommended saucepan diameters are:
rapid burner . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . minimum 24 cm.
semi-rapid burner . . . . . . . . . . . minimum 20 cm.
simmer burner . . . . . . . . . . . . . . minimum 12 cm.
wok burner . . . . . . . . . . . . minimum 24 - 26 cm.
Wrong:
A great deal of heat is
lost along the sides of
the saucepan.
Right:
The heat is evenly
distributed over the
base of the saucepan.
Tip:
Cooking with a lid on the pan saves up to 50%
on energy.
Clean saucepans absorb heat more efficiently.
Cleaning the appliance
Daily
■ For daily cleaning of your gas hob, it is best
to use a mild cleaning agent. Do not use too
much liquid, since this could get into the
burner.
■ Remains of food that has boiled over are to
be removed after the glass top has cooled
down.
Weekly
Special maintenance products for ceramic
hobs, such as Collo Profi or Cerafix give the
ceramic hob a protective layer. Treat the hob
with these products also when obstinate stains
have been removed.
Stubborn stains
You can remove burnt-on stains, metal and lime
scale stains from the ceramic hob with such
special cleaning materials as Collo Luneta or
Stahlfix.
Remove stubborn stains with a glass scraper.
Please note:
Do not drop hot burner caps in cold water.
Because of the strong cooling they might get
damaged.
Boiled-over food residues
Remove boiled-over food residues with a glass
scraper. Molten plastic and sugar can also be
removed with a glass scraper.
Do not first allow the hob to cool completely.
Special maintenance products for ceramic
hobs (e.g. Collo Luneta) form an antistatic layer
on the hob so that it attracts dust less readily.
